We used to have a variable, displayable using either “-? &” or “-? &&”, which contains the environment, prod or dev, before we went to the latest 8202M. The question is: How do we get it back?

I can use &EXCELSERVURL even though it doesn't show up in “-? &”, it's available.

Those still work in my 8202M environment. However, they seem incomplete. So I have created a fex to query the sysset master file.

  
TABLE FILE sysset
PRINT  
    SETVALTYPE
    SETMAXLEN AS 'Max,Length/,Value'
    SETFPROMPT AS 'From,PROMPT'
    SETFTAB AS 'From,TABLE'
    SETFPARMS AS 'From,PARAMS'
    VALUE AS 'Available,Values'
    VALDESC
    CURR_VALUE
    IS_DEFAULT
BY SETNAME
BY SETDESC
BY SERVDESC
WHERE SETNAME CONTAINS '&';
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT HTML
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM NOLEAD
ON TABLE SET BYDISPLAY OFF
ON TABLE SET NODATA ''
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
INCLUDE = IBFS:/EDA/EDASERVE/_EDAHOME/ETC/endeflt.sty,$
TYPE=REPORT, LINES-PER-PAGE=UNLIMITED, $

ENDSTYLE
END

Although, this list still seems incomplete.

For example &DATEHHMIA is not included in that query, but if you have this code:

  
-TYPE &|DATEHHIA: &DATEHHIA

It will return the time of day in AM/PM format.

What's your GEN # of 8202M.

I tried it in an 8202M Gen that I have an it seems to work fine.

Hallway: Thanks. Unfortunately it's not there.

Thanks to both of you. &EXCELSERVURL shows "SET EXCELSERVURL=http://MyEnvironment:8080/ibi_apps" which I can use to determine 'where I am'.

There's at least two options.\

1) We can use "-SET &HOSTNAME=FGETENV(20,'COMPUTERNAME',20,A20);" with caution. That is, keep track of where it's used as WebFOCUS is moved to another server and the hostname changes?

2) The use of "&EXCELSERVURL" as mentioned earlier. But, that comes with the risk of it being blanked out to 'fix' some Excel issues.

-SET &HOSTNAME=FGETENV(20,'COMPUTERNAME',20,A20);" works in 8202 but not in 8009.
